Premium Guided Cycling Tour Crossing The Balkan And Passing Along The Black Sea Coastline

This guided bicycle tour goes on rich cultural routes which cover the Black Sea coast and the Balkan Range at once. The moderate cycling tour starts from the fairy mountain villages of Zheravna and Medven in the middle of Bulgaria, comes down to the Black Sea jewel Nessebar - UNESCO World Heritage Site and continues along the coast to the fascinating city of Varna. The hilly terrain and the amazing nature, garnished with a wine tasting and delicious seafood make the cycling real summer recreational vacation. You will have a rest day in the UNESCO Heritage town of Nessebur. Spend it on a bike in two different ways - easy Burgas city tour or adventurous MTB trip, where the Balkan ends with Cape Emine. Enjoy the friendly services, the cultural diversity of The Balkans and the sea breeze pedaling along the edge of South-East Europe with good quality bicycles and local ride leaders.
